Rearview
Ohhh.. Ohh..
I use to tell myself that you would wait
I borrowed time for two and I twisted fate
I left us floating in the air for wind to hold on to
It let me down it let you go
I drive around like everything's okay
And I feel the lightening in our own mistakes
And I was gonna tell you
I wish all our wrongs could be right
I'm too late
I looked in my rearview
And now I don't see you
Sometimes the things you want are hard to take
Sometimes the ones you love are risks you don't make, yeah
The dust has settled into nothingness
and I yearn for yesterday
Just look around
I'm still the same
I drive around like everything's okay
like everything's okay
And I feel the lightening in our own mistakes
and I was gonna tell you
I wish all our wrongs could be right
I'm too late
I looked in my rearview
And now I don't see you
So many things that we didn't say
So many reasons the world's not the same
Oh, it's not the same
I drive around like nothing's here has changed
But I know the sky has one more cloud to break
And I was gonna tell you
I wish all our wrongs could be right
I'm too late
I looked in my rearview
And now I don't see you
I said I
I drive and everything has changed
ohh..
and I feel the lightening it's in my own mistakes
and I was gonna tell you
I wish all our wrongs could be right
I'm too late
I looked in my rearview
and now I don't see you
I used to tell myself
that you
would wait

Drive
Who's gonna tell you when, it's too late
Who's gonna tell you things, aren't so great
You can't go on, thinking nothing's wrong
Who's gonna drive you home tonight
Who's gonna pick you up, when you fall
Who's gonna hang it up, when you call
Who's gonna pay attention, to your dreams
Who's gonna plug your ears, when you scream
You can't go on, thinking nothing's wrong
Who's gonna drive you home tonight
Who's gonna hold you down, when you escape
Who's gonna come around, when you break

Time Bomb?
I think i love you
But thought too late
Now it looks like
I'll have to wait
But how long am i gonna have to wait for?
You've found another
And live with her
And now i hardly see you
But think of the good times that we shared
How long am i gonna have to wait for?
Will you ever come back to me?
And start what we never started
I feel it in my heart
Still feels new
Long am i gonna have to wait for?
You always seem glad to see me
An wanna spend more time
Like i wanna spend with you
No lies
Am i gonna have to wait for?
I made you happy
Didn't i?
But it never got that far
I gonna have to wait for?
Our friends said
We were made for each other
But we never saw it then
I see it now
As clear as i see your eyes
Gonna have to wait for?
Do you love her
You said you do
But do you really mean it
Does she feel the same
Have to wait for?
What's the answer
Going to be
Will i know
Or do i carry on
To wait for?
I just don't know
Wait for?
Running outta time
For?

All Or Nothing
(coverdale/galley)
Tonights the night
To come in out of the cold,
Ive waited such a long, long time
Im getting out of control
All or nothing
Thats what I want from you,
Im gonna give you everything I got
Now what are you gonna do
Dont try running away,
You know you get nothing that way
cos its too late,
Im gonna prove it to you
Too late,
Ill do what you want me to do
Too late,
You cant run anymore
Cos its too late for you now
My heart is burning
An the fire is hot,
My temperature is rising, rising, rising
Im ready to rock
All or nothing
Im gonna make you see,
Ive made up my mind, for sure, this time
Youre gonna spend the night with me
So dont try running away,
You know you get nothing that way
cos its too late,
Im gonna prove it to you
Too late,
Ill do what you want me to do
Too late,
You cant run anymore
cos its too late for you now
So dont try running away,
You know you get nothing that way

Wake Up
You used to be my closest ally
In this cold, cold world of deception and lies
We would defend and protect one another
Now I can't tell if we are enemies or lovers
So who's gonna rescue us from ourselves
When we gonna wake up
Baby, it's time for loving
When we gonna wake up
My baby, before it's too late
Oh baby
Where did we go wrong, baby
Did this cold, cold world turn us into stone
Well
Now all that battle
Is your ego and your pride
It's ticking like a time bomb
Ready to ignite
Hurtin' me to fight
So who's gonna rescue us from ourselves
When we gonna wake up
Baby, it's time for loving
When we gonna wake up
My baby, before it's too late
When we gonna wake up
Baby, it's time for loving
When we gonna wake up
My baby, before it's too late
When the smoke clears
What will be left for us but tears and pains
Why must we argue over the same things
Just to make your friend go back again
It's never too late
It's been too long
Can't get it right when no one thinks they're wrong
Gotta get out of the bed
And take a look what's going on
Oh when we gonna wake up
Baby, it's time for loving
When we gonna wake up
My baby, before it's too late
When we gonna wake up
Baby, it's time for loving
When we gonna wake up
My baby, before it's too late
When we gonna wake up
Baby, it's time for loving
When we gonna wake up
My baby, before it's too late
Oh baby (wake up)
Oh darling (wake up)
When are we gonna wake up (wake up)
When are we gonna take a look and see (wake up)
What's going on (wake up)
Oh what's going on (wake up)
It was wasting so much time (wake up)
And we're about to lose it all (wake up)
Oh baby baby baby (wake up)
Said I need you baby
Oh I need my baby home (wake up)
Bring my baby back to me (wake up)
Oh baby baby baby (wake up)

Wotcha Gonna Do
Written by ricki, kim & marty wilde
I couldnt believe what I read when I got your letter
Said you needed to take some time to work out your life, yeah
Well, its easy for you to just go off and do what you want
Any time you please
Dont expect me to wait
If you leave its too late
Youre gonna have to crawl back on your knees
Wotcha gonna do when it gets so lonely
When youre down and so far away from home
How ya gonna feel, you know it wont get better
Cos youve made your bed so you can lie in it on your own
Wotcha gonna do
I knew youd been feeling the need to just change direction
But I didnt know you were gonna walk away from me, no
Now youre out on your own cos you think youve outgrown
All the things that you left behind
But its crazy to see
Cos you know without me
Youre gonna end up losing more than you find
Wotcha gonna do when it gets so lonely
When youre down and so far away from home
How ya gonna feel, you know it wont get better
Cos youve made your bed so you can lie in it on your own
Yeah, yeah
Now dont be a fool on yourself
Cos youve got so much to lose
And I really love you baby
Dont you know that I do, yeah
How ya gonna feel, you know it wont get better
Now youre down and so far away
Now youre down and so far away
Now youre down and so far away from home
Wotcha gonna do

A Father's Lament
I was never one for my kids to look up to
That's a stone cold fact that I'll always regret
I was never the best dad, for them to hold on to
I was there and I provided, I cared…and yet
I didn't give enough love, I wasn't tender enough
I was too much a disciplinarian, too quick to berate
I wanted to teach them to be righteous and tough
I realize my mistake, now that it's much… much too late
Too late to do the proper things…,
to say the words I wished I'd said
Too late to cherish them over, and above all other things
Too late to tuck them snugly in bed
To hold them tightly, to kiss them goodnight
Too late to see the happiness on their faces
Too late for me to set things right…
Too late to tie their tiny shoelaces
Too late to savor them clinging tightly to me
In fright at the monsters on 'Lost In Space'
Too late to wonder at their amazing resilience
As I looked down upon their angelic sleeping faces
They are blessed with selective memories that…
Remember only the good and not the bad
Thank God for the knowing that they remember me kindly
But no matter their memories…I'll always feel sad
For I look at old photos of them
And my old heart slowly breaks
At all the things I should have done back then
And of all my past mistakes
Now it's too late to tell them Of Fairies and moonbeams…
and sparkling stardust and of Angel wings
I was never one for my kids to look up to…
I can only grow old and… never forget
That I never did enough of these fatherly things
And I'll forever be one to look back and regret

Breakaway
Opened my eyes this mornin' with a smile on my face
My arms wrapped around you took me away
And it got me to thinkin' that we need to do
Is take a Sunday drive and drive on through
Monday, Tuesday, Friday and Saturday too
Let's disappear, gotta get out of here
Feel the wind across our face
We'll have some fun, gonna dance on the run
It's a perfect day to break away
We'll hit Tulsa by Tuesday follow the stars above
Spend the weekend in Vegas and gamble on sweet, sweet love
It don't matter what we do as long as I'm with you
Let's disappear, gotta get out of here
Feel the wind across our face
We'll have some fun, gonna dance on the run
It's a perfect day to break away
Yeah, yeah
Break away
Yeah, yeah
Let's disappear, gotta get out of here
Feel the wind across our face
We'll have some fun, gonna dance on the run
It's a perfect day to break away
Let's disappear, gotta get out of here
Feel the wind across of face

Hey baby, what you gonna do
When the lights go up on you
What's your name,
Can I drive you home
Sweet woman, are you all alone
You're the one for me
I'm gonna keep you busy as a bee,
Could be, could be

Now, get up woman, don't be slow
It's getting late and I wanna go
No cause for acting big
Got to love, got to live
Stick around with me
I'm gonna show you things
You'd never thought you'd see
You see

You're so fine
Get out! You didn't understand
I'm a hard loving man
No way you can satisfy
The way you look, the way you lie
And when you shut the door
Make sure I don't see you
'Round here no more

The White Lady of Balete Drive
In my country there's a frightening story
Called the white lady of Balete Drive
And though the witnesses there have been many
The story is a legend that's still alive.
They say there was a beautiful young lady
Who went riding a taxi quite late
Alone in that taxi and the driver took a fancy
She met rape and murder as her fate.
Although there was no proof of a body
And the mystery had for years eluded ending,
The street Balete Drive became eerie
For a white lady there was appearing.
Some say she would flag down a taxi and ride
Through the same route, the drivers say.
But from the rearview mirror, there's no one inside
And the drivers, in horror, would run away.
Those who now ply this Balete Drive
Will speed through the street at night
They will not stop, for the dead or alive
And certainly not for that lady in white!

Hurry up, I just cant wait
I gotta do it now I cant be late
I know Im not afraid I gotta get out the door
If I dont do it now I wont get anymore
You try to criticize my drive
If I lose I dont feel paralyzed
Its not the game its how you play
And if I fall I get up again now
Chorus:
I get up again, over and over
I get up again, over and over
I get up again, over and over
I get up again, over and over
Got past my first mistake
Ill only give as much as I can take
Youre never gonna see me standin still
Im never gonna stop till I get my fill
It doesnt matter who you are
Its what you do that takes you far
And if at first you dont succeed
Heres some advice that you should heed

Im not afraid to say I hear a different beat, oh
And Ill go out in the street, yeah
And I will shout it again

I know Im not afraid I gotta get out the door

Bye Bye
Boy you sure look good there standin' in the doorway in the
sunset light
Maybe I read you wrong thinkin' you could be my Mr. Right
I was puttin' my heart and soul on the line
Said you needed some time, just a little more time to make
up your mind
Well it's been long enough
Time is up
Bye bye love, I'll catch you later
Got a lead foot down on my accelerator and the rearview
mirror torn off
I ain't never lookin' back. And that's a fact.
I've tried all I can imagine
I've begged and pleaded in true lover's fashion
I've got pride, I'm takin' it for a ride
Bye bye, bye bye my baby, bye bye
Don't think all those tears are gonna hold me here like
they've done before
You'll find what's left of us in a cloud of dust on highway
4
Baby what did you expect me to do
Just sit around and wait on you
Well I'm through watchin' you just skate around the truth
And I know it sounds trite
I've seen the light
Bye bye love, I'll catch you later
Got a lead foot down on my accelerator and the rearview
mirror torn off
'Cause I ain't never lookin' back, and that's a fact.
I've tried all I can imagine
I've begged and pleaded in true lover's fashion
I've got pride, I'm takin' it for a ride
Bye bye, bye bye my baby, bye bye
I'd lost the game I guess
I did my best to win the part
Now I'm leavin' here with what's left of my heart.Bye bye, I'll catch you later
Got a lead foot down on my accelerator and the rearview
mirror torn off
'Cause I ain't never lookin' back.You can count on that.
I've tried all I can imagine
I've begged and pleaded in true lover's fashion

Move Right Out
Rick astley & rob fisher
She comes home in the morning light
Tries to hide the secret of last night
Tells a tale of working late
Says the things she knows I hate
Why should I convince myself
That she loves me and no one else
Feels like time to break the chains
I wont be fooled again
Gonna take my time
Gonna take whats mine
Im gonna move right out
Gonna take my time
Gonna keep my pride
Gonna move right out yeah
When we kiss theres no flame
But I believe Im not to blame
When we touch its by mistake
Tenderness she just cant fake
Who does she think I am
To let her love another man
I wont take another day
I just refuse to stay
Gonna take my time
Gonna take whats mine
Im gonna move right out
Gonna take my time
Gonna keep my pride
Gonna move right out
Gonna take my time
Gonna take whats mine
Im gonna move right out
Gonna take my time
Gonna keep my pride
Gonna move right out yeah
Oh I love her I really care
The days so long when shes not there
But I believe it just aint right
To see her with someone else tonight
Hear me now
Gonna take my time
Gonna take whats mine
Im gonna move right out
Gonna take my time
Gonna keep my pride
Gonna move right out
Gonna take my time
Gonna take whats mine

Insist on playing games
Some waste of time you are
And youre so popular
Well, this is it, you bitch
Ive got to make my switch
Im just another john

What do I have to lose?

No! too late, too late
I thought you was for real
But youre a rip-off deal
Dont give me all that crap
I just escaped your trap
I think you see the joke
But youre just chasing smoke
You aint another one
I know whats going on
Your move
What do I have to lose?

Oh no! too late, too late
Ooh!
Get on with it!
Misunderstanding me
The way you feel so free
Im gonna jump the gun
Ooh, Im gonna hit and run
Your credibility
Dont cut no ice with me
Another privilege gone
I know whats going on

What do I have to lose?
